They are blinded by the sun in their eyes trying to see you and everyone thinks it's the shadow that spooks the fish but it's actually your shadow covering the sun that allows them to see you and spooks them. Anyways, sightfishing into the sun is tough and even tougher on your eyes and without a good pair of sunglasses, your eyes can get tired early on a good day of sightfishing. Tight Lines, Capt.
